I looked at it seriously for content authoring but gave it up.
The big problem is you cannot import images, textures, 3-d models and such from ordinary tools. You have something like constructive solid geometry to work with but only so much and there is a slider you can use to set the number of players and the more players the less geometry you can use.
I want to make worlds based in photographs (particularly pano and stereo) and art. McDonalds needs to put a Coca-Cola logo on the side of the cup. Either way it is a non-starter.
HW supports collaboration (more than one person shares the world) but https://aframe.io/ lets me make the content I want. If I have to choose one or the other I am going to pick the second.
My take on Meta Quest is that it seems highly successful as a gaming environment based on an app store but is skews towards single-player experiences. Like a lot of AAA games, the excellent Asgard’s Wrath 2 has some multiplayer tacked on but it is all meaningless like leaderboards and the occasional ghost that shows up in a procedurally generated dungeon.
Of course, Meta wants to make multiplayer experiences but somehow they just can’t do it.

You can pay for FOSS software. I do it to support FOSS developers and maintainers.

game example: Shapez https://store.steampowered.com/app/1318690/shapez/ https://github.com/tobspr-games/shapez.io

Project mention: So I spent 3.5 years making a game as a website... | /r/webdevs_of_liberty | 2023-11-07Anyway, the structure of this website uses microservices, driven by an engine I dubbed the MERN-template. It has it's own auth service, and supports both chat and a news feed. The game-specific elements are closed-source though (the idea is you fork the core repo, and build out from there).
NOTE:
The open source projects on this list are ordered by number of github stars.
